Should Anakin really come back though? His death would lose it's power and the fact that Del Rey knew his days were numbered was what inspired them to write the awesome character that he is (was). Without that, who knows, maybe he'd be the one turning into Darth Caedus._________________

That's about as bad as bringing Palpatine back to life. I don't like it when Star Wars takes these bizarre plots. Anakin is DEAD, get over it. Although I would like more time travel stories... _________________Darth Vegas the unwise...

Well, we all know that Anakin isn't coming back, unless somebody at Del Rey has a big change of heart. We just like to whine and complain and come up with ways that he could come back.

That said, I think it would have been possible to bring him back in LotF using Flow Walking. Oh, the road not travelled.

And no more clones. Ever. It might have been an interesting idea once, but the whole Palpatine plot killed it._________________All things die, Anakin Skywalker, even stars burn out.

I'm still holding out for another Thrawn clone. Zahn said it was always a possibility that there was another floating about if Thrawn was ever needed.

But I'd be against an Anakin clone. As much as his death was disappointing, I think he should be left be. Bringing him back would only give them the opportunity to ruin his character._________________

But based on the same logic, all surviving major characters should be killed to preserve what is left of their good character qualities...

Thrawn...I Think I like the Chiss only cuz of him=)
Im ALL for Anakin Coming BacK...I just dont like the clone part.
Hell I wudnt like a Thrawn Clone either....I hate clones and the stigma attached to theM._________________

I can see the problem with using Flow Walking to bring Anakin back. People would start asking, "Well, Anakin's back, why not Mara?". The only solution I could have seen was to make Flow Walking a power that only Caedus achieved. He could have gone back and saved Anakin, but the knowledge of how to do it would have died with him.

And let's hear it for more Force ghosts in the near future.

I kinda like that>>>The Knowledge dies after we get Anakin back
Dunno how exactly the Ghost concept will work. Obi-Wan learnt how to do that through Qui-Gonn...And They reaalyy didnt pass down that knowlegde. Perhaps it happens naturally(as in Maras Case)

Jaina uses the ability, and through the ability she turns into Anakin while her presence joins the Force- like Calista

Jags left going "come again?"_________________-Bring on your thousands, one at a time or all in a rush. I don't give a damn. None shall pass.

I see this alot, that Palpatine's clone was the last straw, but wasn't that the first clone GL gives us? That's right- the idea for a cloned Palpatine came from GL he didn't like the idea of a Force User pretending to be Palpatine.

Then we get to see "What are these Clone Wars are about" Zhan played with them, but that's about it. Yet it's treated like sacrilege to mention another clone. In a galaxy that cloning and it's practices have become about as common as teleporting is to ST

I am seriously suprised the Clone theme wasn't thrown around more- and it just may still- GL isn't done with HIS story, making HISTORY of our EU

I re thought about it- Jaina sacrifices herself to change Tarq's body- then like the Superman reborn- her body vaporizes to transfer her force presence to Anakin- so he's just as Solo strong as he was last time!

Heck even in that same Kal'el-Krypton man blast scene even! hahaha_________________-Bring on your thousands, one at a time or all in a rush. I don't give a damn. None shall pass.

The clone idea wasn't really that bad. I liked it fine in Hand of Thrawn. But ever since Palpatine's little foray into the world of replication, the thought of more clones makes me want to run screaming for the hills._________________All things die, Anakin Skywalker, even stars burn out.

In the comics late 90's Superman "dies" Yeah right- well when he comes back he's missing most of his powers, there was a guy some Kryptonian who wasn't- poss like Brainiac- well the Cyborg Superman looses a Kryptonite gas at Superman- the Kryptonian jumps in front of the blast- there is a cool panel of the Kryptonian being melted and Superman absorbing his powers.
